Quest 2 general impressions @ 43:00
Some G2 thoughts and comparisons start @ 58:00
Would be worth watching from 43:00 if you're interested in both headsets.
Long story short, buy both lol... if you can only afford one, Tyriel says he would probably buy the Quest 2 just because of the value for money.
He says G2 a better PCVR headset, he calls it "the most comfortable headset I've ever tried" and rates the screens, clarity and audio highly. Refers to the lenses as the best lenses he's seen too, (and worth noting those were the 2nd iteration before the recently improved 3rd iteration).
He notes that the Quest 2 with elite strap is significantly more comfortable that the Quest 1. It feels like much more than just 10% lighter due to the headset being substantially shorter and pulling that weight back into a better distribution.
One of the few real negatives he brings up about the Quest 2 (other than how much he hates the standard strap) is that he is unhappy with Oculus' decision to go with 3 position IPD vs a dial as it doesn't fit his IPD properly. He does however note that after a while he starts to get used to it, and after 3 weeks it bothers him less than before. On the subject of IPD apparently the edges of the screen can become slightly visible with wider IPDs but he doesn't seem to feel it's a big deal.
So no big surprises for me... each has their own appeal and go well together. I think if you don't care too much about the price difference and only want to do PCVR the G2 is looking like an absolute monster and still untouchable. If you fancy doing more than just PCVR and/or are more price sensitive, it looks like the Quest 2 is a damn good experience for the money but you definitely need to include the elite strap in your budget and should plan on adding some sort of 3rd party audio solution.
